Discover the sometimes-forgotten Southwest side of Madeira during a jeep tour! Valleys, mountains, the plateau and the seashore make this expedition a trip to remember. Enjoy the amazing diversity of Madeira's countryside during this tour and explore the best of the Southwest side of the island.

You will discover Ponta do Pargo where the coastline was too dangerous for navigation and a lighthouse, the highest one in Portugal, was built on top of the rock. Continue to Paúl do Mar, a charming fishing village, and the neighboring Jardim do Mar, which are privileged spots for surfers who can challenge the waves, considered to be one of the best in Europe.

Get to know Calheta where Zarco, the Portuguese explorer who established settlements and recognition of Madeira, entered when he went ashore. Visit the rum factory "Sociedade de Engenhos da Calheta" where you can observe the machinery used for the production of rum and sugarcane honey. You will also taste some traditional honey cake which is typical of Poncha.

Northwest Madeira 4x4 Tour with Laurisilva Forest and Lunch

Taking in coastal gems, wild forests and sustainable producers, this 4x4 tour showcases Madeira's adventurous side. You'll experience the drama of Madeira's scenery from up close and get an insight into the island's culture, too. Ruben, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Get ready to learn the secrets of mixing poncha, the much-loved island tipple made with sugar cane rum, fresh juice and local honey. Be careful, though – poncha's fruity, refreshing taste hides a serious kick.'Starting off in Ponta do Sol, you'll get great views of the south coast from Paul da Serra, 1400m above sea level. Then it's on to Fanal, where some of the oldest Laurel trees on the island grow. Ruben says, ‘Madeira's laurel forests are the largest surviving area of primary laurisilva woods anywhere. Some of the trees are thought to be around 800 years old, and the ecosystem is largely intact. These forests host around 100 endemic species, and they are protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.'Rumble past typical ‘poios' terraced farmland en route to Seixal beach for a swim. After this, we'll head to Chão da Ribeira to savour a tasty local lunch. Chef Sérgio will show you how to make the classic grilled beef skewer, known in Portuguese as ‘espetada', while you enjoy a glass of Madeira Wine as an apéritif. There's also a vegan burger option. To wrap up your tour, we'll visit São Vicente to meet an organic honey producer. Here, you'll learn all about honey production, and you'll try your hand at making Madeira's traditional drink, poncha.

The coastal views here are some of the best around, so don't forget your camera. Mariana adds, "the cliff is around 580 metres high, making it one of the tallest in Europe.
